Create a confident dog in all aspects of your dog’s life.
It can be frustrating and even debilitating living with a dog with issues without the understanding and knowledge to fix their behaviour. At Agile Dogs we understand the problems you may be going through and that all dogs need a firm and helpful, guiding hand to teach them the difference between right and wrong. When you choose a 1:1 behavioural consultation service with Agile Dogs, you’re encouraging your dog to put their best paw forward, and learn how to behave appropriately around you, other people and of course, other dogs, to fit into your lifestyle and society. Agile Dogs professional Dog Behaviourist
will guide & teach you to improve your dog’s behaviour through a 1:1 assessment in your home or online via zoom, to explore your dogs’ behavioural issues, history and current situation and recommend a training plan going forward. From puppy problems to adult dog issues, Behaviour Consultations usually only require 1 or 2 sessions to address issues, promote desirable behaviours & solidify a plan for ongoing training from the owner as well as with us. More sessions may be required for more complex issues such as aggression and we usually recommend attending group obedience classes when your dog is ready.
Our dog obedience training is offered in group classes or 1 on 1 sessions
Puppy Consultations
Dave from Agile Dogs is expertly trained and experienced to address all your puppy issues, from toilet training, teething, mouthing, biting, attention seeking, independence and destructive tendencies in puppies and more. The puppy stage is a critical period in your pup’s life where correct behavioural advice and proper socialisation is paramount. Early socialisation and positive experiences as a puppy are essential for a well-adjusted and confident dog later in life.
Adult Dog Consultations
It’s never too late to encourage desirable behaviours in your dog. Get the right advice! Agile Dogs can address any issues you are having with your dog’s behaviour, from aggression and reactivity, to separation related behaviours, destruction, attention seeking, barking, jumping up, biting and more. Ongoing training and socialisation is essential for adult dogs through all stages of their life. Talk to us to discuss how we can improve yours and your dogs’ life and experiences

OUR PROCESS
The Agile Dogs 4 Paw Process
Initial Consult
It all begins with a quick initial consultation over the phone to discuss your dog’s current behavioural problems and any issues you are having. Once we have a good understanding of your situation we will discuss training options and book in a time to assess your dog at home or appropriate environment.
Preliminary Assessment
Agile Dogs will conduct an assessment at your home (or via Zoom for online consultations) which involves approximately 1 hour of preliminary assessment, dog’s history, the current situation and environment and the issues to address. We then provide you with an explanation of your dog’s behaviour and why the issues are occurring.
Problem Solving
Upon completion of your dog’s preliminary assessment and discussing your dog’s behaviours so you have a better understanding of the problems and why they are happening, we then provide you with the tools and knowledge on how to solve your dog’s issues and provide you with the solutions moving forward.
Training Recommendation
At the end of the consultation we will provide you with training recommendations moving forward. This involves how to treat your dog’s behaviour issues, what measures to put in place and what training you need to implement in the future. We will also advise on your next steps such as a second behaviour consultation or group obedience classes.

Posted on Karen DansonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dave came around for a one on one session with our new rescue dog Mikey. Dave is so knowledgeable about dog behaviours and training methods. He educated me on why Mikey was reacting the way he was and what I needed to do to be a good leader for him. It all made such perfect sense. I also appreciated that Dave made sure I was realistic about my expectations for Mikey. I only wish I had found Dave from the very beginning of our journey with Mikey. I feel so much more aligned and comfortable with Dave’s training approach and look forward to continuing our journey with Agile Dog Training.Posted on Elouise MartinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Have only been to two classes and we/ our dog loves it! 10/10!Posted on Keith MitchellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dave provided an excellent private session for our new pup which was incredibly informative and we’ve already seen great results in just a few days.Posted on kylie rofeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing dog training. Kind people who helped so much with my reactive dog. Couldn’t recommend them more for both 1 on 1 classes and group classes.Posted on Alex VoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently attended our first class at Agile Dogs and we were really impressed! The class ran seamlessly with over a dozen pups. The trainer was very knowledgeable and approachable. Not only did he provide practical advice, but also demonstrated the techniques with such ease, making it easy for us to follow and apply with our pup Really glad we found Agile Dogs and will definitely be back for future classes. Highly recommend!Posted on ray knightTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We engaged Dave for a home visit to help us with our 3 year old Labrador. Dave gave us practical advice and demonstrated some effective strategies to assist with lead walking and excessive barking. We have seen a dramatic improvement in how we manage our dog’s behaviour. Would highly recommend his services.Posted on Rashel B.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing training session with Dave today. The class was organised and structured, his instruction was precise and clear being really easy to follow. Our puppy loved every minute of the class, and is now totally exhausted. Thanks Dave. We are already looking forward to next week!!Posted on Leah MoncrieffTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend this dog training! We have a three year old Kelpie cross who is reactive to other dogs when on the lead. We’ve had one session of one-on-one training and attended one group session and can see a difference already. Thanks Dave!Posted on Lydia FattoreTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Definitely recommend Agile Dogs to any new puppy owner! David is so knowledgeable, and for the short time that I was able to be at the private session with my partner, I learned so many new techniques to put into practise. He provided the support and knowledge we need to get through the roller coaster puppy phase. 5/5!
